This scanning electron microscopy image captures the moment where degranulating mast cells (pseudo-colored in sepia) attract and start to incorporate living neutrophils (pseudo-colored in cyan), ...

Wounding a zebrafish tail fin triggers a wave of calcium (the blue here is a low calcium area; the red, high calcium) that signals damage and recruits neutrophils. Summary Scientists at the Sloan ...
